And the MAN cores absolutely don't match the MK kit - they're a fair amount too long chordwise at the fuse.
did you hold in mind that you cut the cord about an 1/2 inch shorter when u put the hardwood wing mount in?Red line is the foam wing cord green line is the wing cord when the wing is finished. The cord off the wing gets shorter so it fits in the fuse.
I`m building a curare from MAN plans and so far everything looks good.

I had to cut the cores as you suggested, so it's going to work out. Good thing I measured everything before finishing the wings up! Somehow my built-up wing ended up w/ 2 degrees of washin (not good) at each tip so I had to get a foam replacement. I still don't know how I got the twist, as everything measured out great before applying the sheeting. The wing was built on a jig, so I'm still scratching my head...
